Hi Friends! And a Happy Saturday to you! I was cleaning today and trying to organize my (small) amount of cards I've made (NOT) lol!!, and realized I never posted this one..


This card was made with the beautiful Webster's Pages paper. I added a transparency over the top added a butterfly and their cute buttons...super quick and easy. I opted to leave off a sentiment  because I didn't think it needed one. What do you think?

Hugs, Char

You are such a blessing

 HI Friends!! I hope your having a fantastic week! It's officially hit HOT here...102 today and I'm hating it. My friends always say they can't wait for the heat, then complain that it's to hot lol!! I think they forget just how hot Redding gets :-) Anyway, I've been staying out of the heat and making cards :-)




I shabbied this one up with more of Bety's digital paper and the doily in the back is from Digital Designer's. I never thought I'd be one to use digital but sometimes its really handy to be able to print something now lol. The sentiment is MME.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day :-) Hugs, Char

City Crafter Challenge # 61 ATC

Hi Friends!! WOW can you believe it's Wednesday already? It went from in the 60's last week and actually cold at night to 98 today Yikes it's HOT!!!! I have to admit I'm not  a fan of the heat...once it gets over 100 it's all over for me lol :-) But that's O.K. because in 2 short weeks I will be at the cool coast of Oregon for 9 days yeah!!!

I visited City Crafter's Blog and they are having some wonderful challenges...This week's  Challenge  is to make an ATC card. For those of you who don't know what an ATC card is ...here's the description:

1. They should be 2.5" x 3.5" in size, the same size as a playing card
and if you read the instructions here you have the option of trading your card for someone elses!!! How  fun is that??

Here's my ATC



I used an ATC sized cardstock and the tag underneath is from House of Three which I'm sorry to say is  no longer :-(...the top tag is from Bety I can't get enough of these digital papers and tags :-)
 
Have a great day and thanks for stopping by :-) Hugs, Char
